I Saw a Dog Beneath a Tree
by Steven Blatt


I saw a dog beneath a tree
And shortly he saw me.
He raised a grizzled grimy paw.
Its pads were ripped and raw.
A breeze disturbed the herbal grass
With air from Faerie Pass
And blew stray dog hairs to the sky.
And you and he and I
Were less than light and far with were
Under floating fur.
